A Modified Approach for Inguinal Hernias in Children: Hybrid Single-Incision Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Ligation

Abstract

This H-SIL approach is a safe and efficient method for pediatric inguinal hernia repair. The maneuverability is the same as that in the triport laparoscopic technique, and the cosmetic results are similar to those of single-port laparoscopic surgery.
